Lock Your Doors for Computer Security

Marc Weber Tobias, an investigative attorney and security specialist out of Sioux Falls, S.D. says the first line of defense in computer security is to make sure the physical access to computers is locked and secure. Tobias who will speaking at the Hack in the Box Security Conference 2007 said that 95% of tumbler locks can be compromised with a blank key and then "bumped" with a mallet or similar instrument that pushes the pins of the lock up where the lock can be opened. A simple procedure where picked locks produce a big cache for thieves.

Dallas Computer Repair urges home owners, office owners and IT staff to buy the most secure locks to ensure their confidential data is not compromised or where computers and laptops may be stolen.
